Gravy B | I am going to inherit a house worth $220,000. What would the inheritance tax be? |
Pittsburgh Pa |

You are exempt from paying inheritance tax on the $220,000 home if your total inheritance has not exceeded $1,000,000. So, unless you've received $780,000 in inheritance prior to inheriting his home, your tax free. Enjoy!! |

A realtor isn't likely to be a good advisor regarding inheritance taxes. And unless there's a lot more to the estate, in the millions of dollars, wouldn't be anything like $95000. For federal, probably no tax, but PA will collect some - other responders have answered that. |

You are below the exemption limit for federal tax purposes. Your state may have its own estate tax. Talk to a local tax accountant or tax attorney.
Don't listen to Dr. Julia. Realtors don't know anything about tax law! |

No tax. The inheritance is not large enough. |

The inheritance tax rate for transfer from parent to child (ren) was decreased from 6% to 4.5%; And from 15% to 12% for siblings. The rate for all other persons not so related is unchanged and remains at 15% |

A rate of six percent to assets that are passed to so-called lineal descendants, such as children, grandchildren and stepchildren. A rate of 15% applied to so-called collateral beneficiaries (brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, etc.) |

According to the 2005 tax laws, "Generally, property you receive as a gift, bequest, or inheritance is not included in your income. However, if property you receive this way later produces income such as interest, dividends, or rents, that income is taxable to you." This can be found in Chapter 12, page 87 of I.R.S. publication 17.
However, as stated in an earlier response, if the house is part of an estate, there could be a federal estate tax due if the total value of the estate exceeds the lifetime exclusion.
If and when you decide to sell this house, there are rules to determine gain or loss on Inherited property. Normally, your cost basis is the basis at the date of the decedents death, so make sure you obtain an appraisal of the home, as soon as you can. There are some possible adjustments to the cost basis, such as any federal estate taxes due, as mentioned above. However, if an estate tax return does not have to be filed, then your basis is the appraised value at the date of death of the decedent who left the house to you. Therefore, if you sell the home for the same value as the fair market value at the time of death, there is no capital gain tax due.
If you decide to make this property your main home, you could also sell the home tax free if you own and live in the home for a minimum of two years.
There are a lot of various outcomes involved here so, I would advise that you consult your Tax advisor before you decide if you want to live in the home or sell it. |

i am not very sure about this... but i don't think you pay any tax on it unless your state imposes an inheritance tax on you
because i thought the tax was already paid by the means of estate tax when the person died...
don't yell at me if it's wrong |

Best bet would be to contact a realtor. He/She will be better prepared to answer your questions. |
